75-year-old San Clemente resident just keeps swimming

Jeanne Little, a 75-year-old San Clemente resident, has swum competitively for 25 years, competing in a variety of U.S. Masters Swimming pool competitions and ocean swims in Southern California.

In 2012, she was first in the nation in six events in the 75-79 age bracket, including the 50-meter, 100-meter and 200-meter freestyle events and the 50-meter butterfly. Little also has come in first in several one-mile San Clemente Surf Festival swims and in the Corona del Mar one-mile swim.

"The sport has enhanced my quality of life with friendships and travel in addition to the physical benefits," Little said.
